Publisher's Synopsis
You thought the day would never come. After all the missed holidays and birthdays, you are being released from prison! You're anxious to see your family and nervous about getting back on your feet.
In this essential book, you will learn about the injustice and barriers many faces after release. Those returning home often find it hard to secure housing and employment opportunities. Those that suffer from mental illness are at greater risk of being homeless after release. Due to the lack of skills received while incarcerated, individuals lack the skills needed to survive after release. Not only does this book expose the injustice and barriers of prison reentry, it also serves as a guide on how to prepare yourself after release.
